Media Follies

I've actually had a nice pie-in-the sky idea recently for what can be done about our pathetic media. It's based upon an interpretation of how the media works that it peculiar to me (I think) so I'm going to do an article on it before I get into the nuts and bolts of the fix on here.

But just in case there is anyone reading who is not quite aware of the nature of the beast, here are two good examples.

Rick Santorum compares Democratic judicial filibusters to Hitler's occupation of Paris. What will be the media reaction? We'll see.

Al Franken has an illuminating exchange with two Washington reporters. He shouldn't pick on Senator Allen, though, who has the excuse of being achingly stupid.
